Hi All,
Hopefully this message will go out to the list. It will be the first in 6
days.
My current understanding is that a hacker got into our account (it's
unclear how at this point), and deleted SeeSat-L and SeeSat-D from our
account. As soon as I was alerted to this problem, I've been working hard
at getting the list back. Unfortunately, as we are now on a private
prrovider, I do not have as many possibilities to troubleshoot, and more
importantly to get a back-up in place. As of today, 96 hours after my
first request, the provider still has not installed a backup version of
the lists (after I paid $50). They may sti
For now, I have worked quite a few hours to try and recreate the current
distribution list of both lists (SeeSat-L and SeeSat-D) using a very old
back-up from September 2001, and the log-file of all subscription requests
since then. This process is not foolproof as the information available to
me is limited).
However, I think we have a relatively accurate distribution list now.
But it is quite probable that some of you have been unsubscribed or
subscribed with incorrect or double addresses. So, please accept my
apologies for this inconvenience.
You can remedy this yourself by following the instructions on the web-page
mentioned in the footer of this message. Or you can contact me directly
and I will do my best to correct your address entry.
Hopefully we will back up now and stable. Please bear with me as I
finetune things.
Cheers,
Bart, SeeSat-L administrator, bart@satellite.eu.org
PS: I suspect that the hacker in question has dialed in using an internet
address in the domain dialup.tiscali.it If you have any information about
this person, please contact me.
